A paper-filled capacitor is charged to a potential difference of V0=2.5 V. The dielectric constant of paper is k=3.7 . The capac

itor is then disconnected from the charging circuit and the paper filling is withdrawn, allowing air to fill the gap between the plates. Find the new potential difference V1 of the capacitor. V1= _____ V
While the capacitor is disconnected from the charging circuit, an unknown substance is inserted between the plates. The plates then attain a potential difference that is 0.55 times the original potential difference V0 (when paper filled the capacitor). What is this unknown substance's dielectric constant?

Answer:

k =  6.72

Explanation:

K of paper = 3.7

k of air = 1

Given that charge Q on the capacitor is constant because cell is disconnected from the circuit. So

V = Q / C = 2.5

Capacity becomes C / 3.7 in air .

capacity becomes C/3.7 when paper is replaced by air .

V₁ = Q / (C/3.7)

= 3.7 Q/C

3.7 x 2.5

= 9.25 V

In the second case ,

capacitance  due to new unknown dielectric k

= C/3.7 x k

= kC / 3.7 ( Capacitance in air is C/3.7 )

V ( new ) = Q / ( kC/3.7 )

= 3.7 Q/kC

.55 x 2.5 = 3.7 x( 2.5 / k )

k = 3.7 / .55

= 6.72

When two or more forces act together on an object what do they combine to form
Daniel [21]
Without knowing anything about their magnitudes or directions, the only thing you can always say about thier combination is that it's the "net force" on the object.

A real battery with internal resistance 0.460 Ω and emf 9.00 V is used to charge a 56.0-µF capacitor. A 21.0-Ω resistor is put i
Margaret [11]

Answer: 1.176×10^-3 s

Explanation: The time constant formulae for an RC circuit is given below as

t =RC

Where t = time constant , R = magnitude of resistance = 21 ohms , C = capacitance of capacitor = 56 uf = 56×10^-6 F

t = 56×10^-6 × 21

t = 1176×10^-6

t = 1.176×10^-3 s

A block and tackle is used to lift an automobile engine that weighs 1800 N. The person exerts a force of 300 N to lift the engin
Sidana [21]

Answer:

1800/300 = 6ropes

Explanation:

The engine weighs 1800N and the person exerts a force of 300N, so for him to lift the engine and exerting a force of 300N all through we divide the weight of the engine by the force exerted to know how many ropes are used. Which makes it 6 thereby each rope uses 300N to lift the engine.
